In the icy rivers

by Tullio Bernabei and Fabio Toncelli 14’

The glaciers are the greatest water supply, useful for the human beings, but they are getting smaller because of the global warming. When the cold season starts to crystallize the icy rivers, scientists can control and study them. They can understand the glaciers and study their mechanism, their movements, their sudden overflow and their changes. The pictures taken by the La Venta glacier-speleologists during their missions, in 2013 and in 2014, show the progress of the explorations that are trying to solve the mysteries of the unknown and wonderful world inside the glaciers.
